Paras Patel said that being able to portray Matthew in The Chosen, specifically as someone who has autism, and have so many people share how his portrayal has touched their lives has “really given me my purpose as an artist.”Patel explained that his character started his “apology tour” in Season 3 when Matthew reconciled with his parents.“Matthew, knowing who he is and becoming the person that he is, he always wants to make right of his wrongs — he feels the guilt and the shame,” he said. “So that carries into Season 4.”He added: “That’s something that I love when I portray Matthew, because it really teaches us as the audience of what that can look like and kind of helps us want to do the right things in our lives with obstacles that have come our way.”Paras Patel said he has “learned so much” from playing Matthew and pointed out that “it’s so rare to have a character really impacting you.”Also Read: ‘Hug Your Kids and Talk to Them About Jesus’ – Pastor Jesse Morgan
